Hikvision DS-7104NI-Q1/4P 4-Channel 6MP NVR with 4 PoE - H.265+, HDMI/VGA

HIKVISION 4-Channel Mini 4 PoE 1U Network Video Recorder
The HIKVISION 4-Channel Mini 4 PoE 1U NVR is a compact network video recorder designed for small IP surveillance systems requiring integrated PoE connectivity, high-resolution recording and efficient video compression.
Supporting up to 4 network cameras with resolutions up to 6MP, the NVR provides 40Mbps incoming bandwidth and 60Mbps outgoing bandwidth. Four integrated PoE ports allow compatible IP cameras to receive both power and network connectivity through a single Ethernet cable, helping simplify CCTV installation.
The recorder supports H.265+, H.265, H.264+ and H.264 video compression, helping optimise storage capacity and network bandwidth. It also provides simultaneous HDMI and VGA video output, synchronous 4-channel playback and support for one internal SATA hard drive with a capacity of up to 6TB.
Its compact 200 × 200 × 48mm Mini 1U chassis makes it particularly suitable for homes, offices, retail stores and other small surveillance installations where space is limited.
